| Quote | It would require God, as "he" used his force of will to assemble the first cells (like people building cars) and stuff them with all this information, to either exercise complete foreknowledge of, or anticipate sustaining complete control over, the output of the sun, the timing and consequences of asteroid impacts, the tectonic formation and reformation of continents and oceans, along with the accompanying geological events, climatological changes, advancing and receding ice sheets, and on and on, over billions of years.
Not that anything miraculous was involved. |
Heh. Of course, a being that could handle all that could just as easily arrange for descent with modification to produce the results. Which means that the argument for front-loading refutes the claim that evolution couldn't have happened, since it posits a being that would be capable of causing evolution to happen.
